Association Between Heme Oxygenase-1 Promoter Polymorphisms and the Development of Albuminuria in Type 2 Diabetes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 is a key enzyme in cytoprotective mechanisms against oxidative stress in the cardiovascular-renal system. The T(-413)A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and (GT)n microsatellite polymorphism in the HO-1 gene promoter modulate the HO-1 gene transcriptional activity and these polymorphisms are associated with various human diseases.We investigated the association between HO-1 promoter polymorphisms and nephropathy in type 2 diabetes. We sequenced the T(-413)A SNP and (GT)n repeat segments of the HO-1 gene promoter in 536 patients with type 2 diabetes. (GT)n alleles were divided into 2 groups: short (S, ≤25 GT repeats) and long (L, >25 GT repeats) alleles. The presence of albuminuria was used as a marker of diabetic nephropathy.Patients with the TT genotype in the T(-413)A SNP were significantly more susceptible to albuminuria development than those carrying the A allele, with an odds ratio of 1.577 (95% confidence interval, 1.088 - 2.285; P = 0.016). Subgroup analysis showed that patients carrying the TT genotype with long duration of diabetes (≥20 years), poor glycemic control, male gender and without hypertension had higher odds ratios for the development of albuminuria. In vitro, promoter activity of the T(-413)A SNP was higher with A allele than T allele. Regarding to the (GT)n repeats, the LL genotype showed a higher odds ratio for the development of albuminuria only in patients with hypertension when compared to the S allele.In conclusion, the T(-413)A SNP in the HO-1 promoter is significantly associated with albuminuria development in type 2 diabetes patients, especially with longer duration and poor glycemic control.

P-70: Study of GTn-Repeat Expansion in Heme Oxygenase-1 Gene Promoter As Genetic Cause of Male Infertility
Background: The length of GT-repeats polymorphic region in the promoter of human Heme oxygenase-1 gene (HO-1) alters the level of its transcriptional activity in response to oxidative stresses. Decreased level of HO-1 protein in the seminal plasma has been reported to be associated with oligospermia and azoospermia in male infertility. This is the first study to investigate the association betw...

Heme oxygenase-2 (HO-2) is a critical antioxidative stress enzyme found in endothelial cells and adventitialnerves. This enzyme in conjunction with other HOs (1 and 3) metabolize heme molecule into ferrous iron,carbon monoxide (CO), and biliverdin which is further converted to bilirubin. Both biliverdin and bilirubin arepotent antioxidants, reducing the risk of atherosclerosis...

Induction of heme oxygenase-1, a stress-inducible enzyme with anti-inflammatory activity, reduces the immunogenicity of therapeutic factor VIII in experimental hemophilia A. In humans, heme oxygenase-1 expression is modulated by polymorphisms in the promoter of the heme oxygenase-1-encoding gene (HMOX1). We investigated the relationship between polymorphisms in the HMOX1 promoter and factor VII...
